Many important security updates will end much earlier. The table is based on how long Fairphone will provide incomplete security updates, not how long the device will truly receive security support.
Fairphone 5 and earlier have end-of-life Linux kernel branches without security support. Fairphone's more recent devices are headed to the same situation. In practice, the same thing happens with other components beyond the Linux kernel.
You always have the right to a minimum 2-year guarantee from the moment you received the goods. However, national rules in your country may give you extra protection.[1]
"Die" is a common singular form of "dice". The relative prevalence of "die" vs "dice" for this is regionally dependent. In general, English can't make up its mind with a lot of things involving words which end in a "sss" sound.
Die is singular, dice is plural. 1 die, 2 dice, 3 dice, …
It used to be something people were corrected on, but these days dice is accepted as the singular too and die is starting to be seen as a little antiquated.
So, they've realized podcasters and vloggers are a large part of their target audience. Then I believe they have to implement some models for speech restoration.
These days most people just Adobe Podcast Enhance and forget and, from what I've seen there isn't an open source GUI based tool for automated voice processing out there.

This sounds very intriguing! Been using Aurora (Universal Blue) for years, but there's always a package or two you need to layer. Updates have crapped out more than once because of these packages. Been thinking that an easier way of creating custom images is the solution.
uBlue images are not effortless to create and maintain. Just installed plain Fedora two days ago for this reason.
Vanilla being GNOME by default has kept me from trying it. Plasma is so darn good these days.
That's how it's sold, but have you heard about any major tech company that sends their worker home when they've achieved what they used to achieve pre-AI?
EDIT: Instead of simply down-voting, you're welcome to name examples that proves me wrong ;)
This is anecdotal, but I know that a lot of my coworkers and coasting and putting up one AI generated PR per day which they've hardly even self reviewed.
> In a good company that will come back to bite them next performance review.
In a good company that should be discussed in the next 1:1s so actual change can happen meanwhile. If it just waits for the end of year review, then it's not a good company.
I worked with a guy called Jerker at IBM in Greenock, who soon learned to give back as good as he got. Swedish people can be pretty sarcastic, so he was what you'd call a "good cultural fit".
Security updates will end 01 Sep 2028.
